As any other Mac owner I'm eagerly awaiting Tiger. While waiting I've been catching up on some of the latest technologies. For example, I've been reading this Dashboard Programming guide:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/Dashboard_Tutorial/

I knew that there were some HTML involved in Dashboard but I didn't realize to what extent. Dashboard widgets are pretty much only DHTML (HTML+CSS+JavaScript) where the Dashboard infrastructure is just some extra APIs added to a window.widget object!

I wonder when you can build full DTHML applications that look exactly like native Mac OS X apps...?
